Summertime (Remix)
Ghostface Killah · Other Songs - Ghostface Killah
Walking up to me like they know me
You were the one that stayed aside
Waited awhile and took your time
You don't know how impressing
Your curiosity was to me
It was the fourth day of July
Looked in my eyes and saw that I
I wanted more than just a man, I needed a friend
Someone I can talk to, someone who really listens
When you touched my hand, the sun got brighter then
Trusting you, I closed my eyes and felt our love begin
It was the summertime
When we fell in love it was the summertime
Heaven shined on us it was the summertime
Baby, there is nothing like the summertime, summertime
Now it's been a year and were closer
Fall in love again when I hold ya
I know that God set you aside for me
And now you are my prize
Wanna grow old witcha
And fill our house with your pictures
Have a son for you, a little girl for me
Together we'll raise a family
Baby, you're more than just a man, you are my best friend
Someone I can talk to someone who really listens
When you touched my hand the sun got brighter then
Trusting you I closed my eyes and felt our love begin
It was the summertime
When we fell in love it was the summertime
Heaven shined on us it was the summertime
Baby, there is nothing like the summertime, summertime
It was the summertime
When we fell in love it was the summertime
Heaven shined on us it was the summertime
Baby, there is nothing like the summertime, summertime
Summertime (Remix) - Ghostface Killah

Emerging from the golden era of East Coast hip-hop, this track exemplifies the raw energy and lyrical precision that defined his work with The Underground Illustrious. The recording captures the essence of late-night contemplation, utilizing a rhythmic flow that balances aggression with an underlying melancholy. While the specific album placement remains unlisted in current discographies, the song reinforces Killah's reputation for crafting complex verses that dissect themes of isolation and urban life. As a standalone recording, it serves as a compelling example of his solo artistry, showcasing a vocal delivery that remains distinct within the broader landscape of 90s and 2000s hip-hop. The track's enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke a specific mood without relying on explicit lyrical exposition, allowing listeners to project their own interpretations onto the haunting atmosphere.
